She and her family journey south to her mate Obed's homeland in pursuit of the demon who absconded six years previously with Kallista's temple-bound ilian, Merinda, and her child. But when one of the godmarked dies, Kallista is devastated and her mates must cope without her. A trial by combat is needed to regain custody of a child and a new ninth godmarked must be located in order to make the magic whole again and powerful enough to defeat a truly formidable demon. But Kallista needs more than magic to heal her. "Don't miss this book! Or the series! Fantasy doesn't come any better than Gail Dayton and The Eternal Rose. Wonderful characters and a plot that draws you in and keeps you fascinated. I loved this book."--Robin D. Owens, author of Guardian of Honor and Heart Choice"Treachery within the family, romantic tensions straining to the breaking point, betrayal running through the core of the ilian--I literally held my breath through whole chapters of The Eternal Rose, half afraid to turn the page and see what new trouble awaited Kallista Varyl. I loved the first two books in this series, but the emotional charge of The Eternal Rose blew me away. Gail Dayton has created a beautiful, unique world and family structure with her The One Rose trilogy, and has done so both unabashedly and to great effect. I only wish there were more books to come!"--C.E. Murphy, author of the Walker Papers series less
